This is a great chance to explore Pilates-based movement, improve how your body moves, and feel the benefits of a more balanced, whole-body approach to your health.
Right now, this service is only offered at our San Francisco location.
Jessica will also be teaching Pilates at UPPilates in Burlingame. Just a heads-up—she won’t be offering Physical Therapy services there. If you're looking for more hands-on manual therapy, you’ll need to book through her PT offices in Pacifica or San Francisco.
Pilates is the perfect complement to Myofascial Release (MFR) therapy, strengthening the core and trunk to help you sustain the positive effects of your sessions. With a stronger core, you’ll move with greater ease and confidence, while Pilates movements promote proper alignment and enhance the function of your body from the inside out.
Pilates goes beyond traditional core exercises by focusing on six key principles that transform the way your body moves:
."Pilates helped me rebuild from the inside out—restoring balance, strength, and ease after injury and surgery. It’s not just movement, it’s a foundation for healing."
